acpid event logging is not working when ran with systemd

[Vasili Sviridov]

I'm writing some custom scripts for acpid. If I stop the systemd spawned process and run my own from root account using "acpid -d" flag, I can see the output of the handler scripts appear in the logs, which helps me to debug my handler code.

However when it's running under systemd the logs do not contain handler output and the handler does not function correctly, simply stating that the handler has terminated with error code 1.

Hi there!
I experience somewhat the same, so if I pass the paramters to the unit file, it start just fine, but no outputs can be seen at journalctl.
It seems, that the OPTIONS from the config file has been used by systemd correctly, but the output is missing.
